Kukla's Korner Hockey

With that in mind, we take a look into the FOXsports.com crystal ball and predict some of the things — both the good and the bad — that may well be on offer during the Olympic hockey tournament.
-The Czech Republic will win the gold medal, reprising the role of champion it assumed in the first Olympic tournament opened up to professionals eight years ago in Nagano, Japan.
-Evgeny Malkin will make a run at the scoring title for his team, but will be nipped in the end by fellow Russian youngster Alexander Ovechkin, who will finish in the top five in scoring for the tournament. The Czech Republic's Jaromir Jagr, the leading scorer in the NHL, will win the Olympic tournament scoring title as well.
